Stock market outlook
Siddhartha Khemka, the Head of Research, Wealth Management at Motilal Oswal Financial Services, said that the Indian benchmark indices snapped their four-day losing streak as the Nifty was supported by value buying at lower levels, recent foreign institutional investor inflows, and a marginal recovery in the Indian rupee.
“Overall, we expect markets to continue their recovery while trading within a broader range, supported by improving foreign institutional investor flows, a marginal recovery in the rupee, and supportive global cues,” said the stock market expert.
